2023 Critics’ Choice Awards: “Everything Everywhere All at Once” & “Better Call Saul” Crowned as Top Winners

Awards season is truly heating up, and the Critics’ Choice Awards are the latest major ceremony to take place on Sunday night. Everything Everywhere All at Once was crowned as the show’s biggest winner with five trophies, while Better Call Saul led the way in the television categories with three awards.

Everything Everywhere became one of the most nominated shows in the Critics’ Choice Awards history when it scored 14 nominations and it lived up to the hype. It managed to walk away with a total of five awards, including best picture.

Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert also had a reason to celebrate after picking up two more awards for this film: best directing and best screenplay. Everything Everywhere came out victorious in two more categories: best supporting actor (Ke Huy Quan) and best editing (Paul Rogers).

The television field was more crowded than ever this year, but that didn’t stop Better Call Saul from coming on top. The final season of this show won three accolades – best drama series, best actor in a drama series (Bob Odenkirk), and best supporting actor in a drama series (Giancarlo Esposito). It was also a big night for Abbott Elementary, The Dropout, and Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, and they ended up winning two awards each.

The 28th Critics’ Choice Awards returned to Los Angeles on January 15, with Chelsea Handler hosting the ceremony.
